Caroline Russell AM: I want to put my question to Daniel Bridge, the Programme Director for the Royal Docks team. City Airport sits in the heart of the Royal Docks Enterprise Zone.

Is it someone else entirely?

Can you please supply a summary of the impact of the 2012 Olympics on the MPS Budget between now and 2013?
